He Ate a Divine Dragon-Chapter 495 - 493

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiao turned and went back to the room. Su Qingning was fast asleep.

Lin Xiao climbed into bed and pulled her into his arms. Su Qingning mumbled softly in her sleep but didn't wake.

But I can't sleep. Sixth Master's words today were a rude awakening. I always thought Su Qingning would be safe as long as Shen Jingzhe was protecting her, but the situation has changed. I know it's time to reclaim my cultivation. If I keep delaying this, it won't just be me who suffers when the Genetic Warriors attack again. I'm afraid Su Qingning and even Shen Jingzhe could get caught in the crossfire. Of course, I don't want that to happen. But then again, Su Qingning is in a terrible mood right now; she's definitely not up for intimacy. I'll just have to wait. I'll deal with it after I hand Myth Corporation over to her tomorrow.

Lin Xiao hugged Su Qingning tightly.

「The rest of the night passed in silence.」

When Su Qingning awoke, it was already six-thirty in the morning, a time dictated by her internal clock. The first thing she did upon opening her eyes was to look at the man holding her. Lin Xiao, who was usually still asleep, was looking at her with a smile.

Su Qingning was taken aback for a moment. Just as she was about to get up, she snuggled back into Lin Xiao's embrace.

"Hubby, why are you awake too?"

"Silly girl, do you wake up at this time every day?"

Su Qingning nodded. "Yes, for many years now. I just wake up at this time every day!"

"Sleep a little longer!"

"No need, I'll go make you breakfast!"

"Darling, let's hire a few servants," Lin Xiao suggested. He had brought this up with her before.

"There's no need, I can manage on my own!" Su Qingning said with a smile. She knew he was just being considerate, but she felt that cooking wasn't that difficult. Hiring help would be a waste of money.

Just as she was about to say more, she suddenly felt Lin Xiao's hand roaming over her slender waist. It soon moved to her thighs and then to her perky bottom. Her nightgown was made of a single, thin layer of fabric and was so short it barely covered her.

As Lin Xiao's hand moved, Su Qingning's pretty face instantly turned crimson. "Hubby, stop touching me!" she protested softly, burying her head in his chest.

Lin Xiao chuckled. "How are you feeling today?"

"Pretty good!" Su Qingning answered truthfully. Her mood was alright. Perhaps a good night's sleep had made her forget all her troubles.

Hearing that she was feeling good, Lin Xiao instantly perked up. He held her tightly and whispered in her ear, "Darling, do you remember what you said a few days ago?"

Su Qingning obviously knew what he meant, and precisely because she knew, she felt even more bashful. "I don't remember at all!" she said with a cute pout.

Lin Xiao smiled, his hand already slipping under her nightgown to cup her bottom. Her skin was incredibly smooth, as flawless as the finest white jade. Su Qingning could naturally feel his touch and her body trembled slightly.

"Hubby, please stop... If you want to... can we wait until tonight?" she pleaded in a soft, sweet voice.

Lin Xiao's heart skipped a beat. He looked down at Su Qingning in his arms and asked excitedly, "Honey, are you sure?"

Shyly, Su Qingning nodded. After being together for so long, Lin Xiao already occupied a special place in her heart. She especially remembered that night in Jinhai City; if her period hadn't suddenly started, she would have already given herself to him completely. So when Lin Xiao asked the question, there was no way she would say no.

Her affirmation made Lin Xiao even more excited, and he couldn't help but kiss her several times. However, since she kept her head down, he could only kiss the top of her head. But then, to his surprise, Su Qingning lifted her head and initiated a kiss on his lips.

When their lips touched, a tingling sensation washed over them. Lin Xiao shuddered and began to respond with feverish passion. Su Qingning didn't refuse, her response even more wild than his.

After they tangled passionately on the bed for a while, Lin Xiao felt like he was about to explode. Just when he frantically tried to take the next step, Su Qingning suddenly pushed him away. Seeing the astonishment in his eyes and the raw desire that looked like it could devour her, she felt a pang of guilt.

She kissed him deeply again and said coyly, "Hubby, please, just wait a little longer, okay? I'll be all yours tonight."

"Darling, why do we have to wait for tonight?" Lin Xiao asked, puzzled.

Su Qingning's face turned an even deeper shade of red. "Because... because I'm shy! Besides, I feel like this sort of thing should only be done at night!"

Lin Xiao looked at her, both amused and exasperated. There was nothing he could do; she was just so endearingly old-fashioned. Fortunately, he understood her well enough. He smiled helplessly. "Alright then, tonight it is. And tonight, I'll make sure you're thoroughly satisfied!"

"You're terrible!" Su Qingning gave him a light, playful punch.

Lin Xiao just chuckled.

After they finished breakfast, Su Qingning got ready to leave.

"Honey, are you going somewhere?" Lin Xiao asked curiously.

Su Qingning nodded. "I have to find a job. I need to support you!"

BOOM!

The words "support you" hit Lin Xiao like a ton of bricks. I never dreamed she loved me this much...

Shen Jingzhe, however, was speechless. She rolled her eyes at Lin Xiao.

I know what that look means. She's looking down on me, isn't she? After all, I'm the Dragon Lord, a man whose wealth could rival an entire nation, and now my own wife is going out to support me.

Ignoring Shen Jingzhe's disdain, Lin Xiao pulled Su Qingning into his embrace. "Silly girl, you don't have to look. I've already found a job for you!"

"Really? You found me a job?" Su Qingning looked at him, completely surprised.

Lin Xiao smiled. "Yep, I found you a job!" 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"What kind of job?"

"Just wait, you'll find out soon enough!"

Su Qingning's gaze grew more and more suspicious, but just then, the doorbell rang. Shen Jingzhe got up to open the door.

A few moments later, Xiao Shixiong strode into the villa.

Su Qingning trembled at the sight of him. This was the renowned King of the Southern Town. She had no idea why he would suddenly appear in their home.

Xiao Shixiong first greeted Lin Xiao respectfully. Then, turning to a bewildered Su Qingning, he smiled. "Miss Su, it's like this. Myth Corporation needs someone at the helm, and I believe you are the perfect candidate!"

Su Qingning was even more shocked. She gaped at Xiao Shixiong, completely stunned. "Mr. Xiao... are you saying you want me to run Myth Corporation?"

"Exactly," Xiao Shixiong said with a smiling nod. "With your talent, I'm confident that under your leadership, Myth Corporation will soar to new heights. What do you say?"

Su Qingning recovered from her shock and said with immense gratitude, "Mr. Xiao, thank you for the kind offer, but I cannot accept!"

The moment she said it, Lin Xiao was slightly taken aback.
